Everyone Takes Part One of the highlights of the 1979 Homecoming festivities was the pa- rade. The procession began at 6:00 p.m. at the Catholic Church and was headed by the city ' s police and res- cue squads. The cheerleading squad helped excite the crowd with cheers from the back of a pick-up truck. At the same time Corvettes car- ried members of the Homecoming Court along the route. Don Fowler and Sandy Rucinski, last year ' s King and Queen, were also present for the event. The four class floats rolled down Main Street along with two floats entered by the Scouts and were en- thusiastically received by the specta- tors. The floats were accompanied by costumed members of the Student Body who threw candy to the crowd. The parade came to a conclusion at the high school football field hav- ing given the people of Memphis a taste of the excitement of Home- coming.
